HF: "The Horror Convention Massacre 2" is your first major acting role. I noticed
you are listed on the IMDB page for the original film. How did you get hooked up
with Old School Sinema and what attracted you to the sequel?
Talonz: I got hooked up with Old School Sinema by accident really. I was goofing
off, partying at Cinema Wasteland in Cleveland (where the films were shot) during
the “Friday the 13th” reunion show while doing a Draculina photo shoot. I have to
give my agent Aine Leicht from Horror and Hilarity credit for introducing me to
them. I was with her and some of the cast of “The Devil’s Rejects,” which are
clients of hers, when Old School Sinema was there shooting the first “Horror
Convention Massacre” movie. Aine stayed in touch with them and they wanted to
cast me in the sequel the next year.
HF: You make quite a splash in "THCM 2" and appear to be on your way as a well
known Scream Queen. It sounds like Brinke Stevens in her debut in "Slumber
Party Massacre," in which you have on screen nude scenes and you get killed, all
in your first major part. That sounds exciting. Tell us more about that.
Talonz: I love being naked and covered in blood! Screaming, sweaty, being
tortured, it’s how I do my best work (laughs). I can scream five different ways,
probably more. It’s a dream come true to fill my Scream Queen role, doing the
best work possible, and most racy. Ever since I was a little girl growing up with
films like “Funhouse,” “He Knows You’re Alone,” “Slumber Party Massacre” and
others, I have always yearned for explicit “girl in distress” roles. It’s my fetish, so
this part was tailor-made for me (laughs).
HF: Old School Sinema is legendary for shooting these films extremely fast and
cheap, as they do the majority of the "THCM" productions in the course of one
weekend at a real horror convention. What was it like working with them in that
style?
Talonz: I was nervous. I have never filmed that way before. It turned out to be
such a wicked blast. The crazy atmosphere of a convention fueled the energy of
it all.
HF: Any interesting behind the scenes stories or fan stories from the shoot?
Talonz: Where can I start?! It was a blast and there was lots of partying with
naked chicks. It doesn’t get any better than that! (laughs) The best was my killer
on top of me when we were shooting some promotional stills. We were talking
about hot tubbing and drinks (laughs).
HF: We hear Old School Sinema wants to work with you on more projects. What
can you tell us about that collaboration and the possibilities of that?
Talonz: Yes, yes, yes! More, more, more! More blood, more sex, more violence.
It’s a blast. OSS has great people involved with it. I love working with such
diverse creative people. It’s like a family of horror.
HF: Any other comments you have regarding the film and your experience
making it?
Talonz: It was one of the best times I’ve ever had on a set. I’d definitely do it all
day and night with Old School Sinema!
